Well, I guess everyone knows all about Alcatraz. One last note: While Scott was swimming, about 2 minutes into it, his hand hit something hard in the water. It wasn’t a person, and he knows it was living. His heart was in his throat, and he swam as fast as his arms could take him. It turned out to be a sea lion!

There has been a great turn out for the 2007 10 and 5 K swims. I must have entries to me by next Tuesday, so be sure and put in the mail today or tomorrow if you haven’t done so already. I will need 2 volunteers to help proof the results. Kris has helped me with recording data and Tania has helped put the records together. All proceeds go directly to our team!

Good healing vibes go out to David Gude, who broke 2 small bones in his wrist over the weekend while out riding. They should heal quickly and he will be back in the water in 3-4 weeks.
